Void of Sadness is a painting about the overwhelming feeling of deep sadness and the emotional pain that can build up inside a person. It explores what happens when someone feels so hurt that crying seems to be the only way to release their emotions. This is not meant to show literal blood, but to represent how painful and exhausting sadness can feel. Through its colours, shapes, and dark background, the artwork communicates feelings that can sometimes be difficult to explain with words.
The main focus of the painting is a large pink eye surrounded by a nearly black background. The eye is exaggerated in size, making it impossible for the viewer to ignore. It represents how sadness can take over someone’s thoughts and make everything else seem less important. And when you cry so much it almost seems as if your tears are blood.
